Absolutely tremendous. My son’s fist time - and it did not disappoint! The squash gnocchi was rich and inventive, the rack of lamb perfectly tender, view unparalleled and service perfect in every way. Not all Atlas restaurants are worth writing home about. This one is.

Worst experience was the snooty and rude hostess, everything else was perfect. Crab cakes are the best in Maryland! Easy walk from the National Aquarium.

I’ve tried to keep this restaurant as my little secret for a few years. However, this restaurant is too good to kept in private. Jesse the sous chef is amazing! I really hope the owner, general manager or whomever has the authority to promote Jesse to head chef, will read this and promote him expeditiously! The grace and leadership that this man demonstrated is not taught it’s already within him. The food was 1000/10, I had the short rib dinner and my date had the fish and grits, cornbread, and few drinks between us. Dominque, the manager was so kind and welcoming, he greeted us and it felt like we were part of the family. Sue, our waitress made me laugh several times, it seemed that she may have been one of the only servers that night, but she handled herself impressively, knowledgeable of everything on the menu and kind. This experience was so amazing I had to meet Jesse and give him congratulations for a job well done that night. The restaurant was clean, dishes and plate settings were clean, atmosphere and ambience was top tier.

    What an amazing night from start to finish. It was my wife's birthday and from the moment we arrived everything was perfect. Paul's service was spot on. Attentive, but never overbearing. The food was delicious as always; some of the best in Baltimore. They honored our request for our regular corner banquet table. The birthday card on the table from the whole Marta staff was a nice touch. We'll see you again soon!
